【 摘 要 】

At the Department of Energy's (DOE) Hanford Site in south central Washington State, there are 177 large underground tanks with associated facilities that are used to store radioactive hazardous waste. Some of these tanks have leaked, with the result that there is tank waste in the Site's groundwater. DOE's Office of River Protection (ORP) plans to remediate these storage facilities (WP-13678, 'Integrated Mission Acceleration Plan') by retrieving waste from the tanks, performing facility stabilization, and implementing soil cleanup. Before such work can be performed, performance analyses of various options must be performed for OW, DOE Headquarters, and the Washington State Department of Ecology (Ecology). Because of the large number of performance analyses for each tank and the large number of tanks, performance analyses for the different agencies will be integrated to the maximum extent possible. This document focuses on the requirements for performance analyses used to satisfy Ecology requirements.
